In 1951, Robert and Eunice Faber took a road trip that led Provenance: Acquired in 1965 directly from
them to New Hope, Pennsylvania and to the doorstep of George the artist by Mr. Robert and Eunice Faber,
Ann Arbor, MI | Thence by descent
Nakashima. The artist gave the couple a tour of his workshop,
explaining his design philosophy and his passion for crafting
soulful, practical and unique creations. They fell in love with
all of his works, but the young newlyweds could only afford
a modest coffee table at the time (Lot 175). In 1965, they were
able to purchase several more works by Nakashima to display
alongside their cherished table, adding to what would become
an eclectic and unique family collection.
